Luminosity at ADE 2026
Luminosity is best known for Luminosity Beach Festival in Zandvoort each summer, but it also runs a full programme during Amsterdam Dance Event. For ADE 2026 it has five events over Friday 23 and Saturday 24 October, at two venues: Club Panama (Oostelijke Handelskade 4) and Q Factory (Atlantisplein 1).
Each event has its own sound, from classic uplifting trance to a harder, faster rave format, so it is worth choosing by style. All details below come from the official Luminosity event pages.

A Listener’s Note
I knew Luminosity for its summer beach festival, so it was a nice surprise to see how much it puts on in Amsterdam in October as well.
